Words from the Workshop

Excellent Shoes

The quality of the shoe is excellent. Your service is outstanding. Correcting a sizing error on my part was resolved without a question. Love the shoes.

I am so pleased with

I am so pleased with these shoes. The leather is gorgeous, the fit perfect, and I get regular comments from friends asking where I got them. The shoes also came promptly - a lot sooner than I expected.

The shoes are like a really expensive pair of Italian hand-mades.

This is my third pair of shoes from Adelante. My only wish is that they'd make a few more styles.

Nice quality shoe

The shoe looks great and is very comfortable. The only complaint I have is that the rear flap seems low and my heel slips out.

Wonderful shoes

These shoes are excellent and they’re my second pair from Adelante. Both are regulars in my arsenal.

Well made and highly attractive

This is a classic looking loafer that can go casual or more dressed up. I need a more narrow size than the most narrow ‘C’ that is offered. I need a ‘B’ or more narrow so my fit is not great. Quality of show for the price is very good.

Great Casual Shoe

I now live in my several Adelantes. They are wonderfully comfortable, stylin', and made with the best materials and craft. I never wear socks and find these shoes a sheer pleasure to experience.

Shoe runs big, tried these

Shoe runs big, tried these on when I received these, due to wearing these and creasing the leather I felt like I could not return these, after reading the return policy. I will wear sock with these to offset the size
Quality of the shoes is awesome!!! I will most definitely buy several more, just a size smaller.
Though I did request all leather soles, these came with rubber soles, which is fine they work well in wet weather
Thanks

Perfect! Amazing!

I was probably the biggest pain having to send back 9 different pairs of loafers due to sizing. They were tremendous… especially Emma! She was on top of everything and made sure I had my loafers in perfect shape just in time for wedding. They were able to accommodate expedited shipping and somehow able to handcraft 9 new pairs for me within 2 weeks! Absolutely amazing! To anyone looking to get these loafers I’d recommend a full size down as the 1/2 size down allowed for heel to slip out while walking for all 9 of my groomsmen including myself.

I would highly recommend the purchase based on quality and the culture they value.

I have order three pair of custom-made shoes now. They have all been exceptional. I just order the fourth pair of shoes the other day.

Couldn’t do any better!

After foot surgery I have one foot wider than the other and a lot of social events to go to that require a nice pair of dress shoes. These are perfect. I was able to order one foot wider than the other while still having the style of shoe I wanted that would go with everything - casual or dressy. The quality is impeccable, worth 10x the price but grateful they were so affordable!

GREAT SHOES ! High quality ...

The leather is so soft .. and you can tell it is well built as it is a heavy shoe... I can wear them with or without socks .. they are that comfortable .. a high quality made shoe .. you can tell immediately when you pull the shoe out of the box... I bought the blue and the tan ...
